“All I can say is WOW. I am so glad our organization brought in Charlie Smith for optimism training. He will shift your perspective on optimism, address obstacles to cultivating optimism and ultimately help you get out of your own way. Charlie doesn’t just present, he engages. He doesn’t just speak, he inspires. Many presenters just click through slides, but not Charlie, he actually talks to your group and uses real life examples which help drive home his points even further. If you are thinking about having Charlie train your team, just do it! I can confidently say that our team benefited immensely from his training and are actively implementing what we learned. ”

“Charlie Smith brought his dynamic training program “Cultivating Optimism” to our team made up of various departments and roles. Not only did all participants rave about the afternoon we spent with Charlie, the impact has continued to evolve weeks later. Charlie really laid out how optimism and performance are linked and how optimism isn’t a static circumstance, but a mindset that can be fostered and expanded. Charlie’s actionable steps for cultivating an optimistic mindset have provided our team with solid practices to build resilience and continue to become more productive.”

“We recently had Charlie Smith join one of our Leadership Team meetings to discuss “The Art of Being an Optimistic Leader during the Covid Chaos”. From beginning to end, Charlie had a very strong impact on the team. He started by letting us in on his own journey through abuse and addiction, the impact that it had on his life and, in the end, how he believes optimism is not just a state of mind but a strategic advantage. It was incredibly powerful. The bottom line is that Charlie has an amazing story and shares it in a way that is very human and relatable. It is a great way to connect with the team during this virtual era and deliver a message of optimism.”
